Police issue urgent appeal to find man wanted in connection with theft

Police tracking down a wanted north Manchester man have made an urgent appeal for help from the public.

Officers are searching for Stuart McAinish, from Harpurhey, who is wanted in connection with an incident that took place more than eight months ago.

Greater Manchester Police says its officers want to speak to the 36-year-old about a theft that took place in Sale, Trafford, on June 10 last year.
